Floatation is the deepest relaxation you will ever feel.
You float effortlessly on the surface of warm, salty water.
It relaxes your muscles and calms your mind. Floating gently relieves physical pain, stress, anxiety and depression, replacing them with feelings of peace and serenity. You emerge deeply rested, refreshed, and ready to enjoy life.
Float in the Forest is your floatation centre in the Forest of Dean.
